connecticut's got a very strong set of gun laws. an assault weapons ban that ironically did not cover the weapon used in this case apparently. they tried to limit the high capacity clips. >> okay. >> and they faced tremendous pressure and weren't able to do that, and they still have tough laws. how do you change the dynamic? you say this does change it automatically. >> david, having tough laws is one thing and enforcing those laws is something different. a legislator's job is to come up with laws, to come up to agreements, get everybody into a room, form a bipartisan coalition, get everybody something. get the majority get the most of it. an executive's job is to make a decision. an executive's job is to go out and take the law and apply it and given the intent of the law. that's exactly what we do in new york. the fact that we have the lowest murder rate of any big city in the country says we know what we are doing and we have it every year. we have had a reduction in murder rate virtually every single year for the last 20 years.

. >> chris: nine days later, we are still mourning the victims of the shooting in newtown, connecticut. what are your thoughts about this tragedy? >> you know, "time" magazine's calling it the massacre of innocence and that actually is a phrase from the first christmas, where herod killed baby boys under 2, at christmas time and, it is very tragic, that this is happening at christmas time. i think with the two sandies, sandy hook and sandy hurricane we really need the christmas spirit right now. the deeper the pain, the deeper the grief, the fewer the words. there are long term things we need to deal with to prevent it from happening again but now, we need to console those who are grieving. as a pastor i deal with grief every day of my life and i discovered it is a good thing, the way we make transitions in the losses of life. jesus said, blessed are those who mourn, they shall be comforted and if we stuff our grief, i figured out it comes outside ways later on in strange ways and so, part of the healing process is actually dealing with the grief, and, the way we help people in grief,
